A couple of questions....API and sun cream...

[Dreamer1977]

...probably stupid, but better to ask as you are all in the know

We fly in 6 weeks, trying to get organised fast pass + all booked and magic bands customised. Logged on to va to complete API info and in the first name box it is shown as first name and title all in one, should I delete the mrs so only the 1st name is shown? It has done this for all passengers.

Hoping that it will be warm during the day when we are there (from reading reports and fingers crossed for no unexpected cold front!!) would people recommend taking sun cream or if required buy it when there?!?

Sorry for the stupid questions but unsure TIA

I would leave the API consistent with the passports which they have to match so no titles required

For suncream we buy there. If you have a preference or allergies and would rather take your own familiar brand, then just pack your own. You may be able to get some on summer clearances at lower prices now that the winter is approaching.

P20 is always a safe bet for sun protection, but pack those magic bands in foil, have a look at the Roumours thread, I for one would not use them.

Thanks - will probably buy there unless I find a bargain before hand

I thought the same about the API info, but wasn't 100% sure so needed to ask lol!

Having read up about sun creams, the ones on the sale in the US are not as good as the ones on sale over here. Many US ones do not provide complete protection, or have added ingredients which are banned in the EU (for good reason).

I'll be taking my own.

We always buy our sunscreen in the US as I much prefer the continuous spray on ones that require no rubbing in.

We have used them on DD since she was 9 months with no issues.

We travel in December and will probably not use any sunscreen apart from at the beach and that is only because of the water reflecting the sun. Last December was warm and I didn't need any.
